What's left behind the scenes

  • The solitary rural house and cornfield are a tribute from the filmmakers to writer Stephen King, author of the short story "Children of the Corn" (1977).
  • The character of Milo was based on Isaac from "Children of the Corn".
  • Like in the film "Sinister" (2012), the "found footage" technique is used here (materials from found recordings on film or video cameras, left behind by missing or deceased characters); however, this time the filmmakers use not only footage from amateur recordings on 8mm film, but also vinyl records, radio sounds, and recordings on 16mm film.
  • Unlike the film "Sinister" (2012), where Bagul appears as a mysterious figure, this film provides relatively detailed information about this character and the myths surrounding him.
  • Actor Nicholas King kept Bagul's costume in his closet in a bag from "The Kroger Co." (a supermarket chain founded in 1883 in Cincinnati, Ohio).
  • The film "Sinister" (2012) used amateur footage in "Super 8" format. In "Sinister 2" (2015), this footage was shot on 16mm film.
  • Before the role of Bagul in the film *Sinister* (2012), Nicolas King had played only one role in cinema – a boy on skates in Tim Hill's 1996 film *Max Kibble's Revenge*.
  • Analogues of Bagul in other works include Pennywise the clown from Stephen King's novel *It* (1986), Mort from Rebecca McNatt's novel *City of Smog* (2015), Slenderman (Thin Man) from the internet sphere of *Creepypasta*, and the mysterious killer from Franck Thilliez's novel *Syndrome E* (2012).
  • Ciaran Foy directed the film *Sinister 2*. Scott Derrickson, the director of the first part, helped with the screenplay.
  • Henry Hall's composition "Hush, Hush, Hush (Here Comes the Bogeyman)" was repeatedly featured in the trailers for *Sinister 2*, but it was not used in the film itself.
  • The actor who played Bagul made a license plate for his car with that name on it.
  • Following the release of "Sinister 2" on August 21, 2015, several magazines and websites in the UK and Ireland organized contests with prize packages consisting of merchandise from the franchise. The package included a plastic keychain in the shape of an "8 Super" format camera with a red LED in the lens, a "Sinister 2" t-shirt, a coffee mug that revealed Bagul's face when heated, and a retro-style amateur radio receiver. The bags for the sets were provided by "Entertainment One Ltd." Only residents of the UK and Ireland were eligible to participate in the contests.
  • This was the first horror film in which twins Dartanian and Robert Daniel Sloane played the lead roles.
  • The film "Sinister 2" (2015) used elements of the soundtrack from the first film, specifically the composition "Gyroscope" by the Scottish electronic music duo "Boards of Canada".
  • The film "Sinister 2" (2015) features a 16mm camera from the Swiss company "Bolex International S.A." Working with this camera is more difficult than with 8mm cameras like those used in the first film, however, the filmmakers chose it for a very simple reason. "8 Super" format film appeared on the market 30 years after 16mm film. Nevertheless, 16mm film is cheaper and easier to buy. Film school students in Canada and Europe prefer to work with 16mm film, while the "8 Super" format is used either by amateur home filmmakers nostalgic for bygone days, or by creators of amateur music videos.
  • During filming, Dartanian Sloane lost a tooth.
  • The deputy sheriff, Bagul, and Ashley were the only characters from the first film.
  • There are both similarities and distinct differences between the film "Sinister 2" and its predecessor. The film's creators were inspired by Stephen King's story "Children of the Corn." The film pays great attention to the characters of Bagul, the former deputy sheriff, and the possessed children. According to the filmmakers themselves, confirmed by the trailers, the amateur footage and so-called "found footage" (materials from found recordings on film or video cameras, remaining after missing or deceased heroes – a genre of cinema, mainly horror films) is made more carefully and convincingly than in the first film.
  • Courtney and the twins use a code word, which is typical for communication between adults and children fleeing domestic violence. Its use serves as a signal that everything is okay, or as a warning of danger. Such a word (very ordinary or, conversely, deliberately invented) is known only to victims of domestic violence, as they come up with it themselves and agree on the rules of use. In the film "Sinister 2," "rutabaga" serves as such a code word.
  • During the scene in the cornfield, the viewer notices that the field itself is shaped like a skull, with piles of dirt serving as eye sockets, and the car resembling a fang.
  • The ringtone on the former deputy sheriff's cell phone is the song "Cotton Eye Joe" by the Swedish country-pop group Rednex. This composition is on the list of the most annoying melodies in the world.
  • Real rats were used in the church scene where the Milo family is located.
  • Fans of the film "Sinister" (2012) expected the sequel to finally reveal the name of the deputy sheriff, but their hopes were not to be fulfilled.
  • As in the first film, Bagul appears in the form of certain animals (rats and a spider), descriptions of which can be found in Dr. Stomberg's book.
  • The solitary rural house and cornfield are a tribute from the filmmakers to writer Stephen King, author of the short story “Children of the Corn” (1977).
  • The character of Milo was based on Isaac from “Children of the Corn.”
